The Godfather of Football

Ding bell~ding bell~

Before the morning sun had time to shine into Eliza's room and shine on this woman who looked like the image of Sleeping Beauty in a fairy tale, the cell phone placed on the bedside table rang at an inappropriate time.

The ringtone of the mobile phone more or less broke the fairy tale atmosphere in this elegantly decorated room.

She and Ye Qiu both returned to Amsterdam from Madrid overnight last night. After coming back, they were busy for a while. It was already three or four o'clock. They just fell asleep with great difficulty. Now they can't get up because of thunder and lightning, and they don't know when their cell phones are ringing. .

But unfortunately, this damn cell phone kept ringing as if it had a grudge against her.

It rang a full three times before Eliza opened her eyes in a daze, and her first reaction was a sleepy yawn.

"Who called so early?" Eliza complained in a daze, feeling the urge to kill someone.

But she still picked up the phone immediately, connected it, and said hello in a feeble tone of voice.

"Eliza!" Huang Chu's anxious voice came from the phone.

"Please, what time is it now?" After Eliza heard who it was, she wasn't angry at all.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but I'm at home now and I forgot to bring my key!" Huang Chu said on the phone with an aggrieved look on his face.

Eliza yawned again. She felt that the most comfortable thing now was to sleep, "Please, I don't have the key to your house. Besides, even if it does, I have to wait until dawn before I send it to you!"

"I'm at the door of my house. Come downstairs and open the door for me!"

"Downstairs?" Eliza felt a little sober now.

"Um."

"Wait!" Eliza reluctantly climbed up from the comfortable bed, revealing a body as perfect as jade that could make any man have a criminal mentality after looking at it, and she put it on casually. Wearing nothing but pajamas and no slippers, I just opened the door and stomped downstairs.

The moment she opened the door, she couldn't help but yawned.

"Sorry, I came in such a hurry and forgot to bring the key!" Huang Chu looked apologetic as soon as he saw Eliza.

"Forget it, I owe you Miss!" Eliza kept shaking her head, and after closing the door again, she noticed that Huang Chu was carrying a lot of things in his hands, including vegetables, meat and some obvious things. Stuff she doesn't understand.

"I said, my Miss Achu, what are you... doing?" Eliza felt that she was seriously sleep deprived and her mind was not flexible. She just couldn't figure out why Huang Chu suddenly ran from the UK to the Netherlands. Come?

Huang Chu raised his head, looked at the corner of the second floor, and pursed his lips, "How is he?"

"Him?" Of course Eliza knew who Huang Chu was talking about, "It's very normal. After coming back from Madrid, I went straight home, took a shower and changed clothes, and then had a midnight snack, and then went to bed. It's very normal. I never I have never been so normal, not even talking nonsense.”

The more Eliza said this, the more Huang Chu felt something was wrong, "Don't you think it's too normal?"

"Ha, my Miss Achu, this is funny, isn't it normal?"

Eliza said so, but she was a little moved by Huang Chu's words. Logically speaking, after losing such an important game just now, Ye Qiu should be furious, or cause something to vent. That’s normal, right?

But why does he seem to be fine?

"You came back all night just for him?" Eliza understood somewhat.

Huang Chu walked into the kitchen carrying things, "I'm afraid something will happen to him."

Eliza wanted to say that if something happened to him, countless people in the world would die.

I saw Huang Chu busy in the kitchen non-stop. She didn't sleep all night, but she didn't seem tired.

"I'm a very stupid person. I don't know anything about work and I can't help him. He doesn't need my help in other matters. Sometimes I think about it and I don't know how to help him. Finally, after thinking about it, The only contribution is to cook something delicious.”

Ye Qiu likes to eat Huang Chu's cooking the most. Sometimes he would even fly to London and Cambridge to find her on holidays, just to have a meal of her cooking. .

"Who said that?" Eliza also walked into the kitchen and lay down behind Huang Chu, "You are so beautiful, have a good personality, and love him so much. If that boy Ye Qiu dares to bully you, or... I'm sorry for you, I will definitely help you get revenge, and I will never spare him!"

Huang Chu turned around and smiled brightly at Eliza. Only then did Eliza see her bloodshot eyes, and she felt a pity in her heart. She and Huang Chu were the best sisters. All she could think about was, Ye Qiu must have had eight lifetimes of good luck to meet a girl as good as Huang Chu.

"Eliza, you should go back and continue sleeping." Huang Chu said with a smile.

Eliza shook her head, "No, I'll just stay here with you, and learn from you secretly."

"Okay, learn more cooking skills and cook it for the people you like in the future!" Huang Chu said casually.

Eliza's face darkened, and her voice suddenly fell silent.

"But...you have to go back and put on more clothes, right?" Huang Chu noticed her expression and raised his eyebrows.

Even though Eliza was open enough, when Huang Chu said this, her face turned slightly red, but her tone was very hard, "What are you afraid of? There is no one else and you are here, why am I afraid that you will see it? Do you really want to If you want to see it, it doesn’t matter if I take off my clothes.”

"Go!" Huang Chu spat at her, "Who wants to look at you?"

"Yes, yes, don't look at me. I don't look good. Why don't you go upstairs and peek at him secretly." After saying that, Eliza made a face at Huang Chu and immediately ran back upstairs. Go upstairs, obviously to get dressed.

Looking at her back, Huang Chu shook his head and laughed. This best friend of his was good at everything, but there seemed to be something hidden in her heart that she didn't want others to know, and those things probably hurt her a lot. Otherwise, she wouldn't Will not even say a word.

There is also her family. Huang Chu has such a good relationship with her, but he has never heard her mention her family. Is it because they have a bad relationship? Or does it mean that she has no family anymore?

While Huang Chu was thinking about it, Eliza ran downstairs. This time, her chest looked more plump. She must have worn a few more clothes, and she also brushed her teeth and washed her face. Her whole body looked... Feel more energetic.

"Master Huang, what are you going to do for breakfast this time?" This foreign girl also deliberately pretended to be like those heroines in martial arts movies. She clasped her hands in a fist and saluted, but she spoke in sly Dutch, unable to speak. Awkward.

"Our Ye family's heirloom snack!" Huang Chu replied with a smile, but as soon as she finished speaking, she was so embarrassed that she wanted to crawl into the ground.

Because I am playing in the European Champions Cup, I can take half a day off in the morning and continue the training session in the afternoon.

Ye Qiu slept until almost noon before waking up. After washing his face, brushing his teeth and taking a shower, he walked out of the room.

As soon as she came out, she heard Eliza shouting in surprise downstairs, "Oh my God, it's so delicious. This shrimp dumpling is so delicious. How on earth are you making this? My goodness." Oh my god."

After hearing her voice, Ye Qiu happened to be walking down the stairs and immediately laughed, "Eliza, are you planning to go to China for the Spring Festival Gala? Are you performing cross talk alone?"

But when he came downstairs, he saw Huang Chu wearing an apron in the kitchen. He smiled brightly when he saw him. He was stunned at first, and then felt moved in his heart. He knew why Huang Chu was here without even thinking about it.

"When did you come?" Ye Qiu walked into the kitchen with a smile.

The feelings between the two no longer need to be expressed in words, and with Eliza present, there is no need to say more words, just a look can make each other understand each other's feelings.

"I arrived in the morning. I went to buy something to make your favorite breakfast." Huang Chu wiped his hands on his apron, turned around, and got Ye Qiu a set of dishes and chopsticks from the cabinet. Then he took out another steaming shrimp dumpling from the steamer.

Shrimp dumplings, fried dumplings, siomai, xiaolongbao... It is indeed a family tradition of the old Ye family, but I didn't expect that it was not passed on to Ye Qiu, but to his daughter-in-law. How should Ye Qiu's parents also Didn't you expect that?

"You guys chat, I'll go up and catch up on my beauty sleep!" Eliza was very conscious and didn't stay to be a light bulb, but before leaving, she bumped Ye Qiu with her elbow, "Don't eat them all, give it to me Save some, otherwise..." The evil woman also shook her pink fist, which had no deterrent effect, in demonstration.

Ye Qiu and Huang Chu watched Eliza walking upstairs, couldn't help but look at each other, and both laughed.

Compared with Ye Qiu's mother, Huang Chu's cooking skills are definitely inferior, but they are already delicious enough. Moreover, in a foreign country like Amsterdam, being able to eat home-made food makes Ye Qiu feel warmer.

Sitting opposite, Huang Chu liked to watch Ye Qiu eating quietly, which made her feel very satisfied.

"Are you okay?" Huang Chu was always observing Ye Qiu carefully.

"If you didn't come, I still had something to do. If you came, I had nothing to do!" Ye Qiu said with a playful smile.

Huang Chufen's face turned red and she rolled her eyes at him, but she felt sweet in her heart, "I was so worried that when I saw you, you looked half-dead and dejected, then you wouldn't be the Ye Qiu I like. ”

"Do I look like that kind of person?" Ye Qiu asked with a smile.

"In my hometown, there is a saying, Dare to fight for love and win. Others often say, Win or lose with a smile."

"Just a few words, okay?" Huang Chu glared at him angrily.

Ye Qiu chuckled, "The first sentence means that you have the courage to fight hard, don't like failure, and like to win in everything, but the latter sentence means that no matter you lose or win, you should face it with a smile."

Huang Chu nodded. She had never heard of these two sentences. They were probably said by people from Ye Qiu's hometown, but the meaning was very positive, representing a positive and optimistic attitude towards life and winning or losing.

"The moment I lost the game last night, I felt really aggrieved. I almost wanted to kill someone. But after a while, I thought about it. Isn't it just losing? Who hasn't lost? Are we just allowed to let others lose? What’s the point of not allowing others to let us lose?”

Ye Qiu shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Originally my goal was to qualify for the first round of the Champions League group stage and eventually reach the semi-finals. I'm lucky. I'm good enough. I have nothing to regret if I lose. Real Madrid has the strength and stars. Just put it there, we did not lose unjustly, right?"

Huang Chu nodded. Judging from the reports in the English media, Ye Qiu and Ajax still have very high evaluations. He believes that this team is very similar to the young guard Leeds United that also reached the semi-finals. team, but they also believe that Real Madrid's overall strength is stronger, and Ajax can force Real Madrid to this point, and losing will be glorious.

Ye Qiu put down his chopsticks, gently reached out and grabbed the catkins that Huang Chu had placed on the dining table, "Don't worry, I'm not that easily defeated. It's easy to win against me, but hard to defeat me. I'm still young and can afford to lose." , even if I lose to him for another 20 years, I don’t believe it, and I can’t win again.”

"Everything I lost today, I will definitely win back in the future!"

Huang Chu in turn grabbed Ye Qiu's hand firmly and patted the back of his hand gently, as if to encourage him in this way.

"That guy from Bosque is already over 50 years old, let's just treat him as someone who respects the old and loves the young, let him do it once!" Ye Qiu was so thick-skinned, as if he was talking about losing the game as if he was a ****. Yes, so shameless.

But Huang Chu was made to giggle by his shameless expression. It was only at this moment that she was truly sure that Ye Qiu was fine.

"Hey, don't eat too much, leave some for Eliza!" Huang Chu couldn't stand it when he saw Ye Qiu eating happily.

"This is made by my old Ye family's wife, and I didn't even leave the dumpling wrappers for her!" Ye Qiu swallowed the last piece of shrimp dumplings and stuffed his mouth full, smiling as loudly as he hated it.

"Damn Ye Qiu, I will fight with you!"

Just when Ye Qiu finished speaking and finished eating, Eliza seemed to have emerged from the ground. She rushed up angrily, strangled Ye Qiu's neck from behind and tried to fight him.

The Detok Most first-team training area looked a bit dull in the afternoon because no one was talking.

The usual lively atmosphere was gone, and everyone looked more like they had been gagged by something.

Sitting silently in the entertainment room, sitting silently on the sofa or on the floor, silently looking at the ceiling or out of the window, the TV was not turned on, and the game console was not played. Everything seemed to lack the excitement of the past.

The players all came early today, even earlier than Ye Qiu, which is very rare on weekdays.

So, when Ye Qiu walked into the training area and passed the recreation room, he saw that all the players were here. He walked in a little surprised, "Hey, what's going on? Are you here so early today?"

As soon as the players saw Ye Qiu walking in, they all stood up in unison. But when they saw the relaxed smile on Ye Qiu's face, their hearts were filled with confusion. Do they not pay attention to winning or losing at all? ?

"What's wrong? Why do you look so lifeless?" Ye Qiu asked knowingly.

No one answered Ye Qiu's question, they all remained silent.

Ye Qiu shook his head, smiled, sighed, walked to the players, waved his hand, and motioned for them to sit down and relax.

"The game has passed. We lost last night and there is no way to change it. We should not continue to dwell on last night's game now, because we should concentrate all our energy on the next game."

"Every player and every head coach will lose. No one wins forever, and all winners come out of failure. The most important thing for us is to reflect on, why do we lose? I As the head coach, I should be the first to reflect, and as players, you should also reflect, are you doing your best?"

"Everyone has their own limits, and I have always felt that whether it is a head coach, a player, or even a person or a person, everything a person does in this world has only one purpose. But seek peace of mind.”

When he said this, Ye Qiu walked over and patted Ibrahimovic, Van der Meyde and others on the shoulders and heads, "I tried my best, and you also tried your best. If you lose, you lose. Let's go next." Make a comeback in one season, continue to cause trouble in the European arena, and trample those so-called wealthy clubs under their feet. Let’s see how arrogant they are!”

After Ye Qiu said this, the players felt a little relaxed, but it would take some time for them to relax.

"By the way, who among you is the best at playing live?" Ye Qiu asked with a laugh.

Everyone in the entertainment room immediately looked at Ibrahimovic, and the Swede stood up without hesitation. This kid is always so proud and confident.

"You kid, come on, let's challenge him to a duel!" Ye Qiu raised his finger and challenged Ibrahimovic.

"Boss, aren't you looking for abuse?" Ibrahimovic laughed.

These words immediately made everyone in the entertainment room burst into laughter.

Ye Qiu couldn't help laughing, "Am I looking for abuse? Okay, you choose Real Madrid, I choose Ajax. If you don't lose more than 3 goals to me, you see how I will teach you a lesson later!"

At this moment, the entire entertainment room laughed louder, and everyone started to boo.

"Head, how can 3 balls be enough? At least 5 balls are needed!"

"Five goals aren't enough, let's have 10 goals!"

The players were talking to each other very enthusiastically. Ibrahimovic was a little distressed. "I don't have to fight anymore. I just choose Real Madrid. No manipulation. Everyone stands there and you can kick the goal. I like it." Score a few goals and count them yourself!”

There was another burst of laughter in the entertainment room.

Outside the recreation room, listening to bursts of laughter coming from inside, Bobby Harms, Van Praag and Leo Benhak all looked at each other in unison, showing a hint of approval and affirmation. .

Originally, they were still worried that Ye Qiu was young and could not bear such a blow, so they all wanted to come here to cheer him up, but now that they came here and saw his actions, they suddenly felt that their worries were unnecessary.

Ye Qiu is indeed very strong. At least he can afford to lose and let it go.

There is a saying that is very true, only those who can bear failure are qualified to embrace success!

Van Praag and Leo Benhakker both felt that they were too redundant here. After saying something to Bobby Hams, they returned to the administrative office of the Arena Stadium.
